Being already a guitar player for a few years, I discovered the
karaoke, searching for a way that people could accompany me while
playing my guitar in little jam sessions night.
Soon I found 2 downsides to the karaoke softwares I found on
the web.
A lot of work, if I wanted to create the synchronization from
a new midi and text file.
When I wanted to run these karaoke softwares on my laptop,
the sound quality was very poor (due to the type of sound card
found on laptops).
Knowing that the .mp3 format doesn't realy needs
a good sound card to output a good quality sound, witch is not
the case of the .mid format, I started searching for an MP3 karaoke
software. After hours seaching the web and trying the softwares
I found, I concluded that no software met my needs. Being a software-analyzer
for a big energy company, I decided to make the software for my
enjoyment. And that's how DEL MP3 Karaoke software started.
A software who let's generate karaoke .kok files quickly and
easily from MP3 files or other music files format...
